It's 4:30pm and it's my birthday, you guys. So basically I'm on cloud nine and feeling all the birthday love from so many people in my life. I'm so thankful for every single one of you, near and far. Seriously, it's making me feel so loved.

And just like that it's January 5th. Insert all the New Years resolutions. You know the drill - finding a treadmill at the gym is some sort of personal hell, the Instagram QOTDs are filled with uplifting motivational messages, and you can't help but judge your friend for trying "Dry January" and failing...on day 4. Guilty?

K hi. It's been awhile, everyone. With this cold and damp weather hitting the Carolinas, it's not a big surprise that pretty much everyone I've talked to has been in a little post-Daylight Savings Day (pitch black at 5:30pm isn't working for me, ok) slump.

So this whole idea that I'd be writing a lot on here has definitely not panned out the way I imagined. You guys, it's mid-September. Where did summer go? I think the last time I wrote a blog was back in June. Ugh. Let's just say you all have missed quite a bit. Let me recap.

Summer is in full swing and naturally the rosé is flowing. Let's be real, you can always count on me to bring some wine. Cue: Porch Pounder. Yes, it's wine in a can and I absolutely love it. Think it's weird, think again. This stuff is amazing.
